Happy July Everyone! I'm Kiki from Kiki and Company and am super excited to be here today to share a fun printable for one of my favorite holidays. July 4th just has a special place in my heart, so I hope this helps to make lunch or dinner just a little more patriotic and a little less hectic!

These place mats are simply a quick download and print away to keep your little munchkins busy while they are waiting for their meal.

I've been in withdrawals over the last year. Since we moved to New York, all of our things have been in storage while we build our house, including my collection of old windows. I haven't ad a chance to go looking for more, so when a friend very kindly gave me a few of hers, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with one of them. Making a painted flag window has been on my list forever, and I want to use it not only for holiday decor, but on a regular basis in my home. Not sure where yet...but somewhere! It was super easy to do, and I LOVE it!

How I love every patriotic holiday! They are my favorite, and I absolutely adore celebrating them in every way, including decor, yummy food, cute things for my kids to wear...all of it! I'm also into simple, and my favorite projects are those that don't take a lot of time, but look like they did. :) I've gathered 8 of my most favorite patriotic ideas & projects that I've posted over the years, and put them all in one spot, just for you!

Raspberry Pretzel Bars are one of my favorite things on earth. How can you beat a buttery, pretzel-y crust, smothered in a scrumptious cream cheese center, and topped with raspberries and raspberry Jell-O? You really can't. Plus, it's red and white, which makes it very appropriate for 4th of July and patriotic festivities!

A couple of years ago I made these super cute Stars & Stripes Oreos for the 4th of July, and they are now a family (and friends) favorite! They're so easy to make, and perfect for any patriotic party, BBQ or get together!!!

I am seriously obsessed with frosted sugar cookies. And let's face it...the whole purpose for the cookie is as a vehicle of the frosting. ☺ I made these adorable Patriotic Sugar Cookie Cups, and the whole middle is filled with yummy goodness! Add a few sprinkles on top, and it becomes the perfect 4th of July dessert for any BBQ or get together this summer. You aren't going to believe how easy they are to make--less than 20 minutes--and they are absolutely delicious!

It's the 10th of June which means another fabulous themed roundup from this talented bunch of bloggers! This month's theme is POLKA DOTS, one of my favorite things. I loved the Striped & Polka Dot Pumpkins I made last fall so much, I just knew I had to make a flag version!

With Memorial Day the end of May, then Flag Day on June 14th, and the 4th of July, flag & patriotic decor can be up for awhile, which I LOVE. Independence Day has long been my favorite holiday (next to Christmas ☺), and I get so excited when I can start decorating. I made this darling burlap flag pillow for my front entry bench, and it's perfect!

It's really easy to make, and I used the same method as my burlap flag bunting. Just a couple of supplies, and you'll have your own super cute burlap flag pillow!
